Tessa, do you think you could help find other census records of Victoria? She should have been married by 1910. I found some residential records for a Victoria and Giovanni Marcello, but I can't exactly tell if it's them or not.

However, looking back at the records already posted:Valarie gave you a 1910 Census and Victoria was 35 and single...I posted the 1915 Rhode Island Census listing Victoria as age 40 and still single...The 1900 Census which was also posted shows Victoria, age 23, and single...

Using the address I found in the City Directory for Giovanni and Victoria Marcello in years 1939 - 1943... I searched the 1940 Census for "9 Marvin St., Providence, R"

For future reference - the ED is 6-258 -

I was only able to find the even numbered houses for Marvin St. and only one odd numbered house (#3) in the census...

However, I did find a Tony Marcello and wife Violet living at 6 Marvin St. - possibly a relative? nephew? son? (judging by his age)Tony is listed in the 1943 City Directory for Providence as USN. In the 1940 Census he lists his occupation as machinist at the Newport Torpedo Yard.Tony was born in Rhode Island, and his wife, Violet, was born in North Carolina.

I'm beginning to wonder whether Victoria was born in 1879 rather than 1875. On Ancestry.com, Letino records for 1879 aren't present, but other years are. I searched the birth records for Prata Sannita, Letino, and Piedemonte d'Alife for the years 1872-1877 and found nothing for Victoria.

On the 1920 Census, Cecilia is still living, and Victoria does NOT live with the family...Sooo, Cecilia died sometime between 1920 and 1930 (maybe you can find an obituary for her?)And it appears that Victoria may have married before 1920?

BTW - Esther's husband's last name is Neaello on the census... Is it possible that in the obituary of Michele in 1948, there could have been an error in remembering or recording THIS name? Just a thought...

It's indeed a mystery! As I mentioned in an earlier post, in Michele's obituary (he died in April of 1948), the only children that were mentioned as being Michele's survivors were his oldest son, Ubaldo Pesaturo, and Victoria. Michele had three other children that died before him. Elisio Pesaturo died in 1936, Elvira Lantini died in 1944, and Esther Uccello died in 1947. Michele and Cecilia had two other children (that I know of) that didn't survive infancy. There was Zaira, who was born and died in 1890, and Quintino, who was born in 1885, but I'm unable to find when he died. It was most likely before 1891. Anyway, I just found a 1930 census that has Giovanni Marcello living at 9 Marvin Street with his wife Victoria and children Joseph and Veronica. While Giovanni's birth date is the same as it is on the record you earlier posted, Victoria's birth date, on the other hand, is stated to be 1869, which is not even near 1875. There could be the very slim possibility that the census-taker recorded it wrong, as that is common with censuses.
